Both films started strong, but Singham Again outperformed Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 on Day 1. Singham Again earned ₹43.5 crore on its release day, surpassing the ₹35.5 crore collected by Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. This initial lead gave Singham Again a head start in the box office race.
The Anees Bazmee directorial experienced a slight increase in collections, reaching ₹37 crore with a 4.23% rise. Meanwhile, Singham Again saw a small dip of 2.30%, bringing in ₹42.5 crore. Despite this decline, Singham Again maintained a higher daily collection than Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.
Both films saw declines on Sunday. Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 dropped to ₹33.5 crore (a 9.46% decrease), while the Rohit Shetty directorial saw a steeper drop of 15.88%, collecting ₹35.75 crore. Although the movie had a larger decline, it still maintained its lead over Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 on Day 3.
